Great coverage
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We upgraded the router on suggestion of our Frontier tech. What a difference. We stream out TV and had buffering and pixilation. Now we don’t see a thing like that! Just in time for Superbowl too.

Easy setup
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works great. Thermostat, door bell, three cell phones, printer and two laptops continuously connected. We no longer need a WiFi extender on our door bell. Very easy to setup with the smart phone app.

Very nice mid priced router.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far this router performs very well, has very easy setup. Its my first new router in 9 years, only replaced my old Linksys router because it didn't have the speeds or bandwidth that this newer one has.

Done, and DONE!

In fact, it's the 2nd one I've purchased with one for my daughter and one for the boy. Set-up couldn't be easier, security is outstanding, and you are off and flying.

The VELOP family has a new, versatile member
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Linksys MR8300 Max Stream AC2200 Tri-Band Mesh Wi-Fi Router. I like the newer, easily hidden, and decorator-friendly mesh systems (Linksys Velop,etc) that were introduced a year back. That said, I actually prefer having a multi-ethernet port, powerful primary router. This new Linksys router lets me have both. This version of the Max Stream AC2200 is also a mesh-enabled router (notice the MR replaces the EA in the model name) that can be expanded by Linksys’ multi-band Velop mesh system nodes. Think of this router as being a more versatile VELOP node. I really don’t mind the black spider-like router up on a cabinet or in my closet because I like being able to orient the antennas to distribute Wi-Fi radio signals around my office or media room. Its 4 ports of 1gig ethernet hand off connections to my other devices. And, I can place wife-friendly mesh nodes from the Velop system anywhere else. Linksys makes the entire setup process easy and reliable. SETUP and PERFORMANCE: A mobile device (iOS or Android) loaded with the Linksys App and an Internet connection from you service provider are all that is needed to get started. (This router must by the primary router (node) if you are adding it to your Velop network.) I use the MR8300 in Bridge Mode and that was easy to accomplish. Additional Velop Nodes connected to this primary router also operated in Bridge Mode without any other changes. I was able to stream 4K video to a TV on my outdoor deck and our iPhones, tablets, and streaming players. Wi-Fi access was reliable anywhere in our home. Tested Internet speeds matched my ISP’s modem except when I got further away from that location. It was then that the second Velop node I had must have become the primary signal source. With this new Linksys setup speeds continued to stay high and stable instead of the fall-off I typically saw. That was definitely different . . . and better than before. The phone APP used for installation and management uses non-technical language. No Web interface needed. You can prioritize several devices to achieve maximum bandwidth, It tests your network and shows speed. It allows parental control over prohibited sites and allows you to set up a Guest Network. And, routers aren’t my thing. SUMMARY: The Linksys MR8300 appears to be a serious stand-alone or Velop primary router. Considering it’s only a slight premium over a Velop node, it offers extra ports and probably some added range. I like it. It’s the easiest setup possible, gives even a novice lots of control, and works reliably. Recommended.

works good
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works great other than the instructions assume you are setting this up from a phone. I had to call customer service to get it set up. Not everyone wants to use a cell phone like a desk top or laptop!
